Many fans are going to bemoan the Falcons winning narrowly at home against a 2 win Lions team. The Lions, however, have played tough lately and upset the much better Arizona Cardinals just last week.
This win isn’t going to inspire fans, but it still moves Atlanta to 7 wins on the year. Here are some of the key guys who helped make it happen.
Foye Oluokun
On top of leading the team in tackles with 14 and registering a tackle for a loss, Foye closed out the game in clutch style by intercepting Lions QB Tim Boyle late in the game as they were driving in the last seconds of the game to try and score the go ahead TD.
